My name is Linda Kentie. I’m an allround ‘visual & interface artist’. I have more than 10 years experience with many ideas on layouts for (game) interfaces and designs, and also worked on various projects as an art director. I’ve worked in many areas of game development, including: concept, visual design, interfaces, branding, creating 2D game assets, etc.

Albert Heijn Efteling app

Albert Heijn Efteling app

By  Little Chicken Game Company – Media Samhoud
Client   Albert Heijn – Efteling
Role  2D Art – Art direction
Platform  Mobile – Tablet
Launched  2017

For Albert Heijn and Efteling I was able to work on a Augmented Reality fairy tale story book. For this campaign you were able to collect stamps at Albert Heijn and unlock all the stories. Beside the stories players could also take a 360 ° ride in two exciting roller coasters from the Efteling! During this project I was responsible for art direction and the missing 2D art for 4 of the fairy tails that Efteling was not able to provide me with.


Art assets

The art is drawn with a Wacom Cintiq Companion and Wacom Intuos 3. I was able to bend my drawing style into four of the existing art styles, and made sure that each time the process would go quicker and smoother.

Promotional & Store art

For promotional purposes I created mobile store art and images. By taking elements from the game, making highress renders in Unity 3D, creating effects and bringing everything together in Photoshop I was able to brush everything smooth and pixel perfect.

Internet of Elephants

Internet of Elephants

By  Little Chicken Game Company
Client   Internet of Elephants
Role  Concept / Prototype design & art
Platform  Mobile – PC
Launched  2016

Internet of Elephants is a social enterprise based in Kenya and the United States. They are a collaboration of technologists, conservationists, educators, game designers, and strategists working together towards a stronger connection between people and wild animals.

For this purpose I was able to create a number of concepts and prototypes.

A promotional piece I created for the testing audience

 

Concepts

Various concept and designs ideas, from a elephant roulette, to a wildlife safari in your own town or taking care of a baby elephant.

A concept where you can creating a dream team of animals that would cover the greatest distance and play against friends.

Augmented Reality Application

Below are the Interface and visual I created using photoshop, illustrator, wacom intuos 3 and Unity 3D.



Game prototype 01

The very first prototype was created to test if playing with real animal data (gps data of the behavior of an elephant) would be fun and make players more connected to wildlife thousands of miles away.

Each day Amelie would walk a distance and players had to quess were she would go, determined on the behavior of the elephant.

Game prototype 2

Created a second prototype where you are able to get more information about Amelie and follow her. I wanted to give the players a better feeling of where they are, so instead of a very styles map like in the first prototype I wanted to have a map that would show the environment.

Souls

Souls

Role  Character design / 2D game assets
Platform  PC
Launched  2015

Souls was short project made in 4 days with a team of colleagues. We wanted to create a 2D point & click Adventure with a mysterious touch. I created the characters, some of 2D environment assets and also placed them into Unity 3D to create the whole scene in layers that would have depth.

Drone Escape

Drone Escape

By  Little Chicken Game Company  
Role  Visual designer / Concept art
Platform  PC
Launched  2016

 

Drone Escape is a narrative experiment made by a team of 5 people (2 – programmers, 1 – 3D artist, 1 – 2D artist and one sound designer). The player assumes the body of an unnamed drone who is ‘woken up’ by another drone. You need to perform a repeating set of tasks, but these become tedious quite fast. There is seemingly a way out, but how to get there…

Helped creating the story concept. I supplied the 3D artist in the team with rough concept sketches for the environment assets, some of the textures, created the branding for the game as well as a few animations in Unity 3D for the drone.

We made this demo within a week.

Launched  2010

A fun and colorful Nintendo Wii golf game for Lorena Ochoa (Mexican professional golfer). You use the Wii mote as a virtual golf stick to make the shots. You drive around in a cabby and can travel to exotic and strange locations, ranging from cloudy mountain tops to dense jungles. For this project I created several character versions of Lorena that would be able to fit  well in the game.
